Elections

The elections category discusses why some political issues are trending and why some punch our buttons, the ethics of the stump, vote fraud, the never ending struggle for our hearts and minds, and the internal strife in the Republican and Democratic Parties as members struggle to create identities they can sell to voters.

Republicans Running Against Trump Put Us in Danger

September 18, 2019 by Bob Prokop Leave a Comment

Storm clouds

Our nation is defined by values Democrats no longer understand. Instead of embracing what makes America great, they have turned who we are into a mandate for subversion. For better or worse the GOP is our last line of defense. It’s risky and downright dangerous for three quasi-Republicans to mount an anti-Trump primary challenge that puts our future in danger. Running … [Read more...] about Republicans Running Against Trump Put Us in Danger

Unethical Campaign Bribes Dominate 2020 White House Race

April 27, 2019 by Bob Prokop Leave a Comment

Hundred dollar bills

Candidates running for office aren’t known for telling the truth when they make promises. Despite bitter experience we overlook that fact and vote for them anyway.

Election politicking is all about giving away, but … [Read more...] about Greed is Great for Two Candidates Focused on 2020 Win

Abolish America? Liberal Dissidents Plan to Destroy Our Ideals

June 29, 2018 by Bob Prokop Leave a Comment

Picture of Joseph Stalin. Socialism will abolish America with a new ideal.

America is a not a place. It’s a concept, an idea. Without the idea we’re just real estate that can be given away or sold to the highest bidder. Part of the idea is that we are a sovereign nation. Changing what that means is a hard sell, but the left is determined to get the job done and to abolish America as we know it in the process. The goal of a rapidly escalating war … [Read more...] about Abolish America? Liberal Dissidents Plan to Destroy Our Ideals
